Today I will be sending out the new issue of the Growing Bookworms email newsletter. (If you would like to subscribe, you can find a sign-up form here.) The Growing Bookworms newsletter contains content from my blog focused on children's and young adult books and raising readers. There are 1402 subscribers. Currently I am sending the newsletter out once every two weeks.

Newsletter Update: In this issue I have seven book review posts (two picture books, two middle grade, and three young adult) and one children's literacy roundup (published in detail at Rasco from RIF). I also have two Booklights reissue posts: the sixth entry in my Tips for Growing Bookworms series; and a post for Memorial Day weekend about the joys of Outdoor Reading. The only post from my blog during the past two weeks not included in the newsletter was a heartening announcement from the Santa Clara City Library.

I plan to get some reading done this coming weekend, when I attempt to participate in MotherReader's 6th Annual 48 Hour Book Challenge. The #48HBC is an entire weekend dedicated to reading. The idea is to read as much as you can during a 48-hour period, blog about the books, and network/support other participants. More details are here. I've participated in the past, and the 48HBC is tremendously fun. I say that I'm attempting to participate because, well, I have a one-year-old daughter and a spouse who is on call this weekend. But I'm going to do what I can. Perhaps I'll just read aloud to Baby Bookworm while she plays all day Saturday...

How about you? What have you been reading and enjoying? Thanks for reading the newsletter, and for growing bookworms.
